Lazaroo – Wednesday, December 16, 2009

2 comments, Dec 16, 2009


Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with explosive feeling:

“That night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, ‘Ask for whatever you want me to give you.’”
(2 Chronicles 1:7)

Oh, wow.

What would I do with that, Jesus?

At first thought, that would be like a dream come true – You offering to give me whatever I want.

But on second thought…

it would terrify me.

Do I really know what I want…

let alone what I need?

Huh-uh.

Oh, I have an opinion. I can offer a few semi-educated guesses…

but the only thing I know for sure

is that I don’t know.

Wait a minute.

This isn’t some academic exercise I’m conducting, here.

You have told me to ask You for anything!

O God.

Only You know what I truly need.

Give me that.

That’s what I want.

Nothing more.

And absolutely nothing less.
